Repairing a damaged shared resource tree

The following information applies only to UNIX and Linux boot servers.

If BMR places an SRT into a DAMAGED state, it may be possible to repair it to return it to a READY state. If an SRT is marked DAMAGED because a previous bmrsrtadm command is interrupted, recovery is likely. If you are unsure why an SRT was marked DAMAGED, delete it and create a new one from scratch.

SRT states appear in the Shared Resource Trees view of the NetBackup Administration Console.

To repair a damaged share resource tree

  1. Change to the following directory on the boot server on which the SRT resides:

    /usr/openv/netbackup/bin

  2. Run the following command:

    ./bmrsrtadm

  3. Enter the number of the option to modify an existing shared resource tree.
  4. When you are asked for the name of an SRT, enter the name of the damaged SRT.
  5. When you are asked if you want to continue, enter y.

    The bmrsrtadm program attempts to repair the SRT. The program guides you through installation of any missing SRT components.

    If repair is successful, the bmrsrtadm modify menu appears. When you quit the program, the SRT is in a READY state.
